We heard little story the other day
that shows that the real estate men OF
Los Angeles are up to their old game.
that Of giving this valley "a black eye.
A gentleman from the esstr came here,
looked over the country and selected a
piece Of property which he thought he
would purchase, and which, by the way,
wss a bargain. He went back to Los
Angeles and was told there, by real
estate man that he 'could not live down
heres" that "the sand storms would
blow him out of the country" that "San.
ta Ana winds howled nine months ont of
twelve" and that he was being bilked,
robbed, etc. Not content with lying
about the climate, this precious rascal
attacked the soil, and told the gentle
man that walnuts would not grow in
Orange, and that it was hard work to
raise anything in the crop line.
He spread himself out to see
what dir y stories he could invent, and
managed to shake the gentleman's conf.
dence in Orange considerably. and
caused him to miss an investment on
which he would have realized one hun
dred per cent. in six months, and proba-
bly, in three. 1t is coming to time
when Los Angeles real estate liars will
have to stop their slander of this valley.
Our splendid resources are becoming too
widely known for that kind OF talk to
win, and besides, too many Los Angeles
capitalists are becoming interested here
t1 make it profitable to keep it up. All
that we ask of any man who wants to
invest and make home, is to come here
and stay long enough to see for himself.
Don't go to anybody for information
until you reach this valley, and then
ask the hundreds of reliable men who
can be found here, and who have no in
terest in telling you other than straight
story. Some few months since gen.
tleman resident in Los Angeles was
about to purchase q piece Of property in
Orange, at very moderate figure,
but was induced to go back on it by one
or two prominent men of that city, who
told him mot to put his money into this
valley" If he had not listened to those
disinterested friends he would have been
about $1,000 ahead to-day, on an invest
ment of $500. Hardly week has pass
ed in the two years that we have been
here, that it has not been told us that
somebody up that way was misrepresent-
ing this section. They want to keep all
the money in the country in the city and
its suburbs, but they can't watch all the
corners, and when a man does slip
through their fingers and get down here.
be is lost to them in four cases out of
five. They might as we'll quit lying.
The Santa Ana valley is growing too
rapidly to be injured by it, and in short
time we shall have direct railroad COM

will get here wi'hout having
to iun the gauntlet of the real estate
liars of the Angel citv --[Orange Tribune.
